Nail Team Challenge - Inspired by...a book, movie, song...

Today I am starting a nail art challenge together with the girls from the The Polish Addict Group. Let's hope nothing comes in between and each Saturday I am going to post a new nail art!

The themes for this challenge were chosen by us, each girl came up with an idea for the Saturday's challenge. On the bottom of this post, you can find a list of all the themes.

Today, as you can see in the title we have a fun topic proposed by Oana, Unghiute colorate, Happy Nails.

My inspiration was an older movie called My Week with Marilyn. I already made a mani with this theme back in 2012 (you can find it here), then I painted freehand Marilyn Monroe's portrait on my nails, now I've used the stamping plate BP 15, from the Born Pretty Store.

To complete my new years eve resolution, I use just my new and unused polishes, so here are two of them. I painted the base with Rimmel - Breakfast In Bed, from the Rita Ora collection. This is a light minty creme polish with micro-shimmer, that must be applied in two coats because in one is is a little streaky. It dries to a nice shine. For the glam effect, that I associate with Marilyn, I added to the tip of the nails a little bit of gold glitter by Australis - Eureka. The stamping is added like an accent nail on my ring finger.

I hope you like this mani, it is nothing complicated, I kept it simple. If you like the stamping pattern you can find the plate here, or just enter the Born Pretty Store world and I am sure you are going to find interesting nail art products for you. You can use my discount code if you like!
